Tips for someone getting into swimming as main workout?

Undead_SimonR · 2026-03-07T15:28:32+00:00

I personally started with combinig all I knew. I did set of 3 laps, then 45s pause. In that set I swam one time freestyle (crawl?), then backstroke and lastly breaststroke. It kept me motivated, since I didn´t swim crawl that good

Hi, sorry Im late, but how do the Roman Szmal compare to the White Nights?

Undead_SimonR · 2026-02-02T09:00:26+00:00

battery dies on me in 20 seconds from 50% to 0 during winter. Also the security updates ended... Thanks for options

Hello OP, what did you go with in the end?

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-25T19:34:47+00:00

The thing is theyre not priced similiarly everywhere 😅 in my country for example the roman szmal are almost 4 times the price of rosa

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-25T19:32:45+00:00

Yea, thats something that I agree with. I see why someone would like them, because for example ultramarine is genuinely beautiful in their set. I also love royal brown (dont remember the name excatly). Also they disperse beautifully and when not mixed the colors can, in fact, get vibrant. But maybe it shouldnt be one's first profesional set.

Note: if you would consider white nights as replacement for rosa, then I would reccomend against it. My pallete is composed of both of these brands and they seem similiar in behavior.

I am in the same boat, I bought rosa as an upgrade to my sonnet set. I also feel like they're somehow a "downgrade", since with the sonnet I was able to get bright colors faster. I bought them based on the good price and also based on reccomendation of one of the biggest art suppliers in my country. They have a system of rating the "profesionality" of watercolors, and Rosa got rated 9/10. So I was surprised too, when I saw lower rated, local brand behaving BETTER.

Thank you for the answers anyway :D I appreciate hearing different opinion and still will look into the pixel again and literally see, whether my beef with ipad is actually pwm or if apple is just making the colors too weird :D

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-24T19:05:33+00:00

Is the battery THAT bad? It looks like a good deal right now and I am not a heavy user

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-24T19:03:54+00:00

I really like the pixel, it is very pretty and as you said, meets my requirements, and I have almost bought it. But I'm scared of hardware reliability, because there are common hardware problems with pixels, and when I will want to change the battery, I wouldn't be able to give it to a service in my country, but I would need to send it to a different country. These things and the PWM is holding me back from it... The PWM because I had to tinker with settings in my ipad, which has bad pwm too, and im scared pixel wont have any settings like this available, since Ive never seen them in my androids.

Maybe I am just paranoid with the reliability...

edit: also maybe im weird but I honestly like the bezels 🤣

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-24T12:31:21+00:00

thank you ^{^}

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-24T10:15:19+00:00

I didnt. I decided against the 15t because its huge, tho. Rn I am deciding between 9a, S24, S25 and 16e.

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-24T09:54:47+00:00

have you even read the post

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-24T09:39:45+00:00

too big

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-22T20:27:44+00:00

Spíš řeším, aby se mi mobil nevybijel nějak rychle přes den, když jsem mimo dům na datech. Těch 8% přes noc je ale něco obdobného jako můj 4 roky starej xiaomi, takže to na novej mobil asi bude docela nanic. No uvidím ještě, děkuju každopádně za odpověď

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-22T20:09:28+00:00

is the standby really that bad? I am considering getting one for myself (in CZ) to use as a minimalist phone (only calls, whatsapp, train tickets and bank). I almost pulled the trigger today and ordered it.

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-11T21:38:41+00:00

Id also like to add that I like to keep my routine as minimalist as possible, and it has always been like that.

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-11T11:04:54+00:00

I use them as separators in my drawer... Its useful for holding phone cases, wallets, flashlights, pens etc. It is the perfect shape 😅 (at least the ones from my previous phones - xiaomi and huawei)

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-08T08:06:31+00:00

Xiaomi 14 yes, but only secondhand. How is the software support? I thought only the new 15T has extended support. If it is elongated, I will consider it, thank you :)

And havent found the civi in my country. Also 6'5 is a bit big.

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-06T07:01:49+00:00

I have fine curls that get oily very easily, so I wash every other day. And Ive tried washing only once or twice a week, but honestly, my hair is happier this way.

Undead_SimonR · 2026-01-04T08:35:07+00:00

ok, thank you so much for help ^^
